    2. How to make sure that that I am not being sold a local filter wrapped as K&N.
    3. What is jetting? and how to get it done?
    4. A reliable workshop in delhi where I can get the job done well.


    Many thanks in advance
    1.you can go for K&N Ru 0200 which will cost you around 3000-3500
    2.go to k&n website where you can find out the list of nearest authorized dealers

    since your bike has done only 8k i hope bike is in warranty period if so its always better to keep stock setup because any of these mods can be a threat to warrenty

    Since there isnt much power to be gained from a K&N, my friend decided to stay with the stock filter.
    how we can know wic size n make of k&n will fit perfect to our bike....

    I've seen carb RTRs fitted with the RC1060 Filter from K&N. And all of them were fixed directly onto the carb. with all the tubing removed.

    Nov on a Fuel Injected bike, Where can this be fitted? I Dont want to install it directly onto the engine, due to the air around the engine being warm/hot do to heat produced by the engine.

    I was thinking that If there was some place under the side panels, (I'm also guessing the stock air filter goes there, I've never seen the innards of a stock RTR ) Then the K&N FIlters can be placed there and connected with some tubing.

    Also, There needs to be some kind of air flow meter for the ECU. Now where will this be found??






    Its A FI K&N will not support it it will give multiple lags.......

    Wat does that mean Sam??
    I use the RC1060 for my Pee180UG3... u mean bigger than that? like the R1100(hope this is rite model) used on Pee200's.
    Do u mind explaining how this bigger filter theory works? I'm curious
    Well apart from that what sam is saying correct. If only serious mods then go for K&N or any other filter. Besides PiperCross Foam filter is best coz it generally don't need upjetting...If u use PiperCross Stock Replacement

    Couple it with a free flow exhaust and you will love the change.
    sorry bro .. its already done and checked
    check out the RTR thread .. people have done it including me

    my spark plug was becoming white after the installation of HP filter //
    i did some tweaks and turns and its again roasted brown
    trust me .. if you want PERFORMANCE then you have to go for bigger jets and a free flow

    you dont need to upjet if you get a bigger filter . we can adjust the air volume screw and that will do the trick ..
    there will be no increse or decrease in pickup or top end .. just SOUND

    i am so addictive to it .. when i buy a new bike i will change the filter after the run in

    without box.
    with hole in the box ( sounded nice cause the sounds reverberates nicely within the box.)
    and with the box.

    and to be honest without K&N is the best.

    i have had soo many issues with it because i had not up-jetted it.
